Cinco Celebrations!

Thank you for your kind words on my PCOS news. You are all the best! You have made this news so much easier to accept and it helps knowing there are so many others out there going through such similar things. Misery loves company, right? 😉 I’m kidding! I do really and truly believe attitude is everything and I am not going to let this slow me down or define me!

Anyyyyways!

If you know me, you know I LOVE Mexican food. And I get a little excited about Cinco de Mayo!

Unfortunately, this year’s Cinco meal was a bit of a disappointment. The enchiladas were good, but they weren’t the best. 🙁 I spent about an hour on Tuesday night making the sauce and cooking and shredding the chicken and another 40 minutes last night assembling the meal. A bit tedious! And not as good as these enchiladas!

P.S. A few of you are interested in seeing my carb-controlled “diet plan” and I will endeavor to post a few days here and there. Even though I am currently recording my intake to watch my carbs, I listen to what people eat all day and I can bore myself with that very quickly! And the last thing I want to do is bore you, too! 😉

I love Mexican food! Unfortunately, my husband doesn’t like anything spicy (he says toothpaste is too spicy!), so we don’t eat it very often. But I would never pass up a taco…especially loaded with salsa and cheese 🙂

I love it all but don’t get to eat too much up here. When we make it at home I usually go for a burrito as you can load all the taco stuff up with lots of hot sauce and it’s not as messy when you eat it.

PS: Everyone pretty much covered everything I was thinking about your diagnosis. Hope everything works out well enough down the road.

B. I was driving all day yesterday when you posted your PCOS news, but I just want to tell you how much I KNOW you’re going to stay strong and rise above this!!! You have the support of so many people!! I can’t imagine how hard this must be, but know that you have a community of women (and men!) behind you on it!

I would pick enchiladas, hands down. Probably the worse for you but the red sauce, salsa verde, and mole are such fabulous varieties!

I am so glad you have the blog community to help support you with your diagnosis. We are here for you! Thank you for being so open and honest, sharing the details of this syndrome. Its something not many of us know about, and I really want to know more to support people I know who have it. Including you 🙂

So much work for a non knockout, bummer! I’d go for tacos. I love being able to pick and choose what goes it in and the veggies are usually uncooked whereas with fajitas they lose some of the great veggie crunch.

I like your Negra Modelo in the background. Every time I go out for mexican I get the same taco/enchilada combo with rice & beans. From the taco truck it is a Carne Asada burrito for sure! I shall say a little prayer for you and your PCOS–you’ll manage quite well I am sure, you have a fantastic attitude!
